I absolutely LOVE trying out different dishes from different cultures! To me, it's not only a…read morefoodie experience, but also an overall cultural learning experience. The way I see it - the more I learn, the more I grow and the more I can share with others so that we can all grow and celebrate diversity together! Tonight, I had my first ever Pakistani food experience and it was a flavourful and colourful one! As soon as I walked through the doors of Khokha, a resto that recently opened up in Barrhaven, I was greeted by the wonderful scent of spices and a colourful vibe from the murals on their walls. I felt so welcomed and it felt so familiar despite me never trying this cuisine before. I ordered the Khokha Roll - a handmade flat bread filled with chapli (beef) kabab, Khokha sauce, onions and cilantro. All the flavours worked so well together. I also got their Mango Milkshake (lassi), which was nice and creamy. It helped balance the spices of the Khokha Roll. For dessert, I got the Carrot Halwa - cardamom flavoured traditional carrot pudding served with nuts. It was yummy and reminded me a little of carrot cake! I've also tried their Biryani and it's delicious as it is colourful! Have you tried out Khokha yet?

I may have waited a bit longer but it felt like every dish was prepared with love the way this type of cuisine should be prepared and served.

TLDR: Delicious food at this new Turkish restaurant in Orleans. A bit pricey but worth the splurge…read more I was looking for a place to get food for my family for Good Friday and decided to try Turkish Anatolia Restaurant since we love trying new restaurants and my parents haven't had much Turkish food. My dad loves variety, so I got the Mix Kebab Meal for 4 ($109.99) which comes with chicken shawarma, beef shawarma, chicken breast kebab, beef steak kebab, chicken wings, 2 different types of ground red meat kebabs, salad, bread, and your choice of rice or bulgur (and I requested half and half). I added 2 orders of the Sigari Boregi ($7.49) as well. I called in my order and it was ready for pickup in 30 minutes. Service was quick and efficient. The food was a hit. As expected, my dad loved the variety. My brother and sister-in-law enjoyed it too. We were 6 adults and it was plenty of food. We even had some leftovers. All the meats were delicious. Very flavourful and moist and tender. The rice was plain white rice, but the texture was great. Soft and fluffy. The bulgur was also soft and fluffy. The meats also came with grilled tomatoes and grilled jalapeno peppers. The peppers were really spicy. There were also 2 small containers of a creamy garlicky sauce, which was also good. The salad was excellent. In addition to lettuce, there were red onions, carrots, cabbage, tomatoes and crumbled feta cheese. It came with 2 small containers of creamy salad dressing and a small container of oil. We didn't use the oil, but the dressing was delicious. The Sigari Boregi were rolls of phyllo pastry with salty cheese. They were crispy and tasty, but a bit too salty for my liking. Although we got takeout, they have plenty of seats for dining in. The meal was a bit more than what we usually spend, but it was well worth it. Lots of free parking available in the plaza where the restaurant is located. It's next to the Real Fruit Bubble Tea and is where the King Shawarma used to be (was a Prince Shawarma before that). (53)

TLDR: Good kabobs. The beef one was a bit gamey though. The BOGO UberEats deal was awesome, $19.99…read morefor 2 Mixed Shami Platters. Salang Kabob House has been on my list of places to try for some time now, so I was thrilled when I saw that they had a BOGO (buy one get one free) special on UberEats. It was $19.99 BOGO for a Mixed Shami Platter. So this is what I got. Each platter came with a ground chicken kabob, a ground beef kabob, rice, salad and naan. It was a lot of food and a great deal. I enjoyed the chicken shami, but I found the beef shami a bit gamey. The kabobs had a good flavour to them. The rice was soft and fluffy and nicely seasoned, but a little bit oily for my tastes. The salad was iceberg lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes and red onions. Vegetables were fresh and crisp. The salad came with a spicy red sauce, which I liked, and a creamy dressing, which I didn't use. The naan was tasty and I appreciated that it didn't have pesky sesame seeds sprinkled on it like some other places. I ordered for pickup and the food was ready in about 15-20 minutes. Pickup was quick and efficient. The restaurant has lots of seating inside. There's free parking available in front of the restaurant. The parking is shared with neighbouring businesses. (102)

Rounding up from 3.5 stars…read more I got the Sultani Platter, with came with one tikka and one shami kabob, rice, salad, and naan. I chose chicken tikka and beef shami. I also upgraded to qabulli rice instead of just regular, and Salang salad instead of regular. I wanted to try the Qabulli rice because it's Afghanistan's national dish. It had the addition of julienned carrots and sultana raisins, and I believe it typically has sliced almonds as well, but this one didn't. The Salang salad had the addition of feta and kalamata olives, along with the iceberg and romaine Lettuce, cucumber, tomato, red onion, and pickled pepper. The platter had some weight to it! The salad came with both ranch and Greek dressing. They were fine, though I wish there was some other house dressing. The chunks of feta were great, softer than I expected and less dense, less salty. All in all, the salad wasn't anything special, but I did appreciate the fresh component to the dish. I'm not usually a fan of chicken breast, but the chicken was very moist and flavourful. Beef shami is always a safe bet for me. This one was a little more done/drier and saltier than I would've liked, but still good and the flavour was there. Both had the grill flavour that I enjoy. The tomato chutney that came with it was nice. It was almost like a fresh salsa but not chunky, and with a little spicy kick to it. The kabuli pulao (though they spell it "qabulli" rice) was tasty. They were very generous with the raisins and I wasn't big on the sweetness. The carrots were cooked and tasted a bit sweet to me also, but not sure if it was just the raisins cooked with them. Maybe the almonds would've helped cut the sweetness. I really liked the basmati rice itself, which was flavoured. It was great to try the qabulli rice, but I think I'll get the regular rice next time. The plain naan was good, nice a fresh, crispier on the outside and doughier on the inside. If you've never had Afghan naan before, it's not the same as Indian naan. Indian naan is thinner, flakier, and larger, whereas Afghan naan is thicker, denser. I do wish I had something to dip it in or had it buttered or something, but it's great bread and I had already filled up on the rice, so I actually split it and saved the other half to use in a sandwich later. My husband got the beef shami platter, which came with two shamis, and an upgrade to garlic naan. I tried some of the naan, and while good, I found salty. Maybe they used garlic salt? I also got the ayran/doogh to drink and the firnee for dessert. Doogh is like a salted yogurt drink that I've only tried maybe once in the past, so I thought I'd try it again. It was okay, but I couldn't finish the whole bottle. The firnee was homemade and very tasty. Not at all as sweet as I expected, and I loved how creamy/milky it was, and the crushed cardamom and finely chopped pistachios on top. It was perfect. Will definitely order from here again.

I stopped at Harir to get a late evening snack and ordered some Manto ($10.99) for takeout. As I…read morewas waiting the lady came over and advised me that they didn't have enough ingredients for a full order of Manto, so they could make me a half order of Manto and a half order of Ashak. I was fine with that, especially since it would allow me to try two different types of dumplings, lol. I really enjoyed them! Although my order wasn't quite half of each, as I got 3 Manto and 5 Ashak. The Manto are dumplings with ground meat inside. The Ashak are dumplings with leeks inside. Both dumplings had the same wrapper, which was thin and had a nice texture. The ground meat was well seasoned. The leeks were soft and mild in flavour. Overall I enjoyed them both, but liked the Manto better. I loved the creamy sauce they were in and the sprinkling of split peas over the Mantoo. I also got a tiny piece of lean meat thrown into the container. Although I got takeout, I did sit in the restaurant to wait for my food. The restaurant is really pretty inside. There were no other customers dining there at 8:45pm, but there was a steady stream of Uber and Skip the Dishes drivers picking up food. I will be back for more Manto and to try their other dishes. The restaurant is in a strip mall with lots of free parking.

After a lentil soup and bread, which were both disappointing, I decided to try out the chicken kebab. The meat was really tasty and tender. The accompanying salad was generous but a bit dry. I would have preferred having another regional salad with cucumber, tomatoes, parsley, mint and onions, rather than a large amount of onions in one corner of the large plate. The beef kebab was also tasty. From the entrance to the time we left the restaurant, the service staff was quite amiable. The dining room which is quite large can accommodate large groups. Maybe next time, we will be more.
